Our Sunday slate of Premier League matches begins early, and Loic Remy has scored early in the match to give Newcastle an early 1-0 lead on the road.
White Hart Lane was stunned in the 13th minute when Yoan Gouffran nicked the ball off Paulinho in the central midfield, catching Spurs off-guard and allowing him to immediately slot Loic Remy through the stunned defensive back line.
Remy easily then touched around American goalkeeper Brad Friedel and finished cooly into the back of the empty net. Friedel is in goal in place of Hugo Lloris who is still suffering from concussion symptoms.
The goal is just the sixth allowed all season by the staunch Tottenham defense, but the blame will no doubt lie with Paulinho who never should have allowed the ball to get away from him in the midfield while the team was looking to build from the back.
After Roberto Soldado put a free set-piece header over the bar in the 10th minute it's been all Newcastle since then at White Hart Lane.
You can watch the match live on NBCSN or live online at NBC Sports Live Extra.
- beards106 - Nov 10, 2013 at 8:25 AM
Suggestion for NBC Sports Live Extra.
Box Score, Commentary, and Standings on the side are nice, but I'd like to see lineups. Include subs perhaps, maybe time of goals scored and/or times of cards.
Lineups on the video screen would be great, just like player stats for any other sport to be watched online.

The Forest Forty
The Forest Forty
Beavers, deer, and woodchucks under federal investigation. I just read the headline. I didn't bother with the story because I made up my own.
Roscoe, New York. 1/11/02
The Forest Forty is a well-known militant organization made up of woodland creatures whose main goal is to bring down the NRA and the meat packing industry. It has been said that their funding comes from PETA, but this has yet to be proved, despite the FBI finding Alicia Silverstone posters in several beaver dams. Detractors from this theory claim that the animals are really running an methamphetamine lab in their underground quarters, and point to the large increase in sales of glow in the dark necklaces and Aphex Twin albums to coyotes as proof. An intensive investigation into the Forest Forty began 5 years ago, when Charlton Heston received a package at his NRA office that contained woodchuck and deer feces. The package was left on his doorstep, on fire. When Mr. Heston stomped on the bag to quell the flames, he remembers hearing "animal-like giggling" coming from the bushes. A beaver who had been sitting in the county animal shelter, detained on charges of biting a human, told authorities he would give them information on who sent the excrement filled package to Heston in exchange for his freedom, thus giving a whole new meaning to the phrase stool pigeon. Between the beaver and another informant known only as Rabies187, they were able to gather enough information to move in on the gang's upstate New York hideout. When the FBI arrived at the scene, they witnessed the last of the Forty scampering into the tunnel. In an effort to drive the animals out, the agents blasted Ted Nugent records into the hole, but it was obvious the animals had found another way out. We will have more as the investigation continues.

Editorial: Has Windows Search Got Any Better Over The Years? Hint: It Hasn't
Last weekend I was feeling a bit nostalgic and fired up Windows 2000 on my home computer. Win2k has a special place in my heart. Sadly, due to planned obsolescence it's no longer possible to use this fantastic operating system with the latest software available.
Be that as it may, what annoys me even more are the "improvements" made to Windows search through the years. The search box in Windows 2000 is very powerful, there are no cute animations and there are no exclusions. It's just no-nonsense search, as you would expect it to be. I'm afraid to say, Windows search has got worse, and not better over the years, 8 included.

Dear Terry, I think your question is an excellent one. To date, there are very few outcome studies in art therapy; I believe that music probably has more and I am not aware of dance or the other modalities' research results. As an art therapist I can recall that 20 years ago there was a call for outcome studies in the field; today that same call continues. Much of the research that is published has to do with evaluating drawings or other art expressions for characteristics with the intent of diagnosis or assessment. This is not really art therapy per se, but art-based assessment; as a field art therapy seems to have a hard time developing and conducting studies that evaluate the outcome of various forms of art therapy treatment and intervention. I actually find more studies of this nature in related disciplines, and not coming from art therapists. For the last 8 years I have been part of research group evaluating the usefulness of drawings in trauma debriefing of school shootings, violence, and traumatic loss. We have some good results to indicate that using drawings facilitates debriefing efforts and with trauma specific questions, reduces PTSD over the short and long term. Without getting into pages of description, what we are concluding is drawing is a sensory activity that may help in connecting explicit and implicit memory of trauma. Well, that's it in a nutshell! :-) Back to your question-- the lack of outcome research does make credibility difficult, especially with other mental health professionals who look to outcome studies for information on the value of a particular treatment. Same with insurance providers. I am hopeful that as the knowledge and recognition of the creative arts therapies increases, more researchers in counseling, psych, social work, medicine, and the arts therapies will address the need for outcome studies. Cathy

Warriors entertain French side Brive in the quarter-finals of the competition this Saturday (kick-off 1pm) in a game that is being televised both sides of the English Channel.
And after beating Saracens 22-8 last weekend at Sixways Stadium, and with the knowledge that their Premiership status is secure for next season, Ruddock has urged the Warriors to turn their attention to the European Challenge Cup campaign.
"We want to finish as high as possible up the league table, and get as many points and wins as we can" said Ruddock.
"That won't change, but what we've got to do is re-focus a little bit to look at the European Challenge Cup. We got to the final last year and now we've got an opportunity against Brive, who are a very good side, to make it through to the semi finals."
When asked if the knowledge that their Premiership status is safe for next season would impact the team's preparations for the match, Ruddock added: "The victory against Saracens will allow us to play with a little less pressure and be able to enjoy that.
"It's a great opportunity for us, and now there's a little bit of pressure off, we can go and concentrate on that fully and not have to worry too much about the league games coming up.
"We want to finish on a high. We want to show the fans that we're improving all the time and we're keen to do that throughout the season."
Tickets for what is sure to be one of the matches of the season are still available.
Make sure you're at Sixways Stadium to cheer on the Warriors as they continue on the European cup quest. Call the Warriors Box Office on 01905 454183 or visit www.warriors.co.uk today

First Time cruiser and had the Best Time in Europe !!
It was for the first time we have boarded any cruise so far and the time which we spent on cruise was the best than the sightseeing .On 14th May 2014 we boarded the Liberty of the Seas and was overwhelmed to see the professional approach by the staff .From the day of boarding and till the departure we had the lifetime experience .They asked us to put tag on the luggage & porters took our luggage and dropped in front of our room .We have booked Stateroom 8666 on 8th Deck with balcony.Room was good only issue was the facilites not provided in the batchroom like showercap,body lotion etc,.,After we checked in our Bay In charge Cindy briefed us all about the cruise and the facilities where we can access free of cost. She handed over us the Cruise Compass which has the detailed time schedule of all events and program me's of Cruise .
We had mouthlicious delicacies at Cruise specially at Windjammer...it has all the world wide cuisine's from European to American and Indian More
all cuisine's made with and without onion and garlic.
On 12th Deck we had fun time playing basket ball,golf,rock climbing etc. Their is also a vitality Spa on where female's can rejuvenate their lifestyle.On 3rd Deck we had spent good time at Casino's .
For the first time cruiser I think this will be the lifetime chance to spend some good time with their little one's and family.Overall we had the Best time at cruise . Less

The end of uncertainty and a new beginning.
The end of chance (I have commented on the end of theory here) – well cry me a river. Where are the objections from the Humeans or the storm troopers of quantum physics? This would be a good time for followers of Hume to point out that induction, that is, predicting the future from the past, will remain logically indefensible even if in practice predictions rarely fail. Lovers of the quantum will claim that there will always be irreducible unpredictability, as in the atom, so beyond.
As the efficiency of big data and their (not its) mining continue to grow exponentially, the mapping of your past behavior takes the mystery out of your future "choices." I am putting "choices" in quotation marks because the acolytes of the Church of Free Will will have some explaining to do. When you walk into a department store and you are greeted by a robot who gives you a coupon for the very item you are about to "intend" to buy, you realize with a sinking feeling that the robot knows more about you than you do. The robot, with its algorithms and access to big data that suffer no memory loss, has the advantage.
Enter trust. Our friends in the financial industry (bankers, insurers, loan sharks) will know better than you do whether you are not only able but also willing to repay your debts. Id est, they have no more need for trust. They know.
If this head-spinning rush toward a full victory of determinism were to be democratic, you too would be equipped with a robot that can run algorithms on big data. You would be able to predict the behavior of merchants, loan sharks, and police officers. There is a small voice of hope and it says that once technology is unleashed, we will all have it.
All too often, we hate paradoxes because of their potential to induce headaches and because of their disdain for logical coherence. But here's one that gives me cheer. If big data takes the uncertainty out of human behavior, and if access to it is uniform, then its victory will nullify itself. If I can predict what you will do and you can predict what I will do, one of us can go to the second level and deliberately (by "choice") do the opposite. The other, knowing this, can counter. Et cetera, ad infinitum. The result is that both our behavior returns to unpredictability.
The end of uncertainty? Guess again!
For an entertaining treatment of the idea that full mutual predictability will remain elusive, read The Princess Bride; for a more formal treatment, see Sir Karl Popper's ideas on The Oedipus Effect (not Complex) in The Poverty of Historicism. For the idea that we humans have some room to limit how predictable we are to others, see earlier posts here and there.
No substance. A Bergamascan lawyer told me with confidence that psychology has no substance. Before I could respond with an eloquent slap on his orbitofrontal cortex, he added that psychology has function. I settled for that. -- I should have said, 'Yes, it's all in your head.'
Years ago, a lawyer told me that psychology has no utility. What's wrong with lawyers?
Expectations. They say you should expect the unexpected. I thought about it, but couldn't figure it out.
A third-person ultimatum game.
The standard two-person ultimatum game confounds the responder's preference for an equal outcome with his resentment for the proposer's nerve to claim the lion's share. This confound can be removed by introducing a third person. The third person, let's call him MB (Mr. Moneybags) proposes to split the 10 ducats by offering 9 to Mr. A and 1 to Mr. B. The stipulation is that the split will be executed as soon as both agree. Otherwise, Mr. Moneybags keeps the stash. Now, Mr. A is likely to consent, although he is not certain to do so. If the social preference for inequality aversion is a powerful force, he will reject the offer in order to send a signal to MB. Mr. B is more likely to reject the offer. If he does, it is presumably because he objects to the grave inequality. His rejection brings a punishment of Mr. A as a byproduct, but it is not a moral punishment because Mr. A has done nothing wrong. It would be an interesting experiment to run the standard and the third-person ultimatum game side by side to see how much more inequality responders will tolerate in the latter. If someone knows of a study in which this was done, please leave a comment.
Güth, Schmidt, & Sutter (2007) describe a three-person bargaining game, in which the first person proposes a three-way split between himself, the responder, and a dummy player. Here, the proposer remains in interested party. As in the two-person game, the modal outcome is the proposal and the acceptance of an equal split.
Illusion of control, sort of.
Babylon. Growing up in the Humboldtian educational system, I was forced to endure 5.5 years of Latin. It was what one did. A friend of mine asked a teacher why we had to study Latin. The teacher said "Because we must." That summed it up. The Prussian culture of obedience in its pure form. I always felt that learning a live romance language would have had greater utility. If you know Italian, it can help you study French, no? Why begin with the dead root? Finally, 40 years later, I am harvesting late-ripening fruit. Teaching psychology in Bergamo in English presents a rare indulgence. I can refer my students to their Roman ancestors and what they would have said. The last mot de jour was ceteris paribus. I enjoyed how my Italian students pronounced it (cheterisse paribusse). Naively, I thought that Italian, which in good Humboldt (Wilhelm, that is, not Alexander) tradition I regard as a form of Vulgar Latin would have a recognizable version of this phrase. Apparently, it does not. I went to the Babylon translation machine by way of the google company and asked for an English - to - Italian translation (as self-respecting non-Humboldtians, they don't do Latin). They say that ceteris paribus is "a parità di tutte le altre circostanze." I hate to say it, but a feeling came over me that made me miss good old Latin.

Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
It is becoming increasingly apparent that the IETF Mobile IPv6 protocol will have a role to play in future mobile and wireless networks. However, it is extremely likely that even after a real world deployment of IPv6, a considerable number of 'legacy' IPv4 applications and devices will remain in regular use for many years to come. Recently, much work has been focussed on developing protocols and tools to ease the transition from IPv4 to IPv6, yet despite mobile systems being one of the primary motivations for IPv6 deployment, none of these protocols and tools are designed to operate in a mobile environment. This paper documents the motivation, design, implementation and experimental evaluation of Mobile 4-in-6, a mobile aware IPv4/IPv6 transitioning technology based upon the Mobile IPv6 standard, that provides transparent support for IPv4 only applications in IPv6 only environments

I got upset when my wife had to pay $75 a semester to park on campus at the university....Some people must live in a different world.
If the pain is lacking so is the discipline... "the only 911 call I need is chambering a round" - Mr. Muller, MO car dealer
HOLY CRAP only $75 to park at a Uni. I paid $300 to park 30 times at GMU. That is $10 each time I parked or $2.50 an hour.
its a small school, aroudn 3500 students.
I see a lot of growth and development in my region. No sign of economic distress around here.

[Update] Interdisciplinary Approaches to Literary Regionalism EXTENDED DEADLINEfull name / name of organization: Robert Murray contact email: firstname.lastname@example.com This panel, proposed for the 2013 American Literature Association convention in Boston, seeks papers that investigate the intersections between contemporary literary criticism about place and region and similar discussions in other fields, such as architectural criticism, cultural geography, and ecology among others. Such recent movements as critical regionalism demonstrate that two disciplines can have a common interest in examining the relationship between a work of art and the place it occupies, as well as the claims (implicit and explicit) it makes about the recursive effects of that occupation. We invite papers that examine literary regionalism by borrowing the critical apparatus of other disciplines. These include, but are not limited to, the geographical work of Hsuan L. Hsu or Yi Fu-Tuan, work on nationalism done by historians such as Benedict Anderson or Eric Hobsbawm, and the environmental regionalism of Charles H.W. Foster. Papers should be 15-20 minutes (8-9 pages) in length. Please note that as per ALA guidelines, no one may present more than one paper at the conference. Please send an abstract of about 300 words and a brief bio or c.v. to Robert Murray (firstname.lastname@example.com) before January 23, 2013. cfp categories: cfp categories: american cultural_studies_and_historical_approaches ecocriticism_and_environmental_studies ethnicity_and_national_identity interdisciplinary science_and_culture

Previous pregnancy as a protective factor against death from melanoma. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 65563 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Examination of the case-records of women presenting to the Melanoma Unit at Sydney Hospital over the period 1961-71 has shown that women with pregnancies before the development of melanoma had a better survival-rate from melanoma than women without previous pregnancies. The known presence of fetal antigens on melanoma cells and immunisation against fetal antigens during pregnancy suggest an immunological explanation for these results. Exposure to fetal antigens during pregnancy may protect against the dissemination of melanoma cells bearing similar fetal antigens and thus increase the survival-rate. The incidence of melanoma in males and females was approximately equal, which suggests that immune responses to tumour-associated antigens may be more effective in preventing spread of tumours than in preventing their occurrence. |

An informative and analytical anthology that shows how rich Indian historiography has been
B. Surendra Rao
History is the knowledge of a retrievable human past. In one sense it is what the historian does, but in another, it is available to the historian and society as a collective of accumulated, debated, dialogued, refuted, amended, renewed knowledge to choose from and build on. Historiography unfolds this rich terrain that has gone under the historian's plough and the ideas and strategies that have gone into coaxing what is shown as a harvest of truth. Approaches to History puts together 10 critical essays of stock-taking and introspection on various aspects of Indian historical writings. They illumine several themes of interest and relevance which mainstream historiography had loftily overlooked.
Archana Prasad has shown how the historiography of tribal societies has moved out of the domain of ethnographers and anthropologists to be linked to development strategies of modernisation, capitalist domination, ecological questions and the conundrum of preserving the tribal identities while yet forcing or coaxing them to change. Himanshu Prabha Ray's "Writings on the Maritime History of Ancient India" confidently and felicitously takes us to the maritime space created or occupied in ancient India from time to time, its cartographical imaginings and realities, maritime trade and their changing partnerships and the various other seductions for negotiations and integrations. The essay lays out a rich fare of scholarship that has gone into tracing the influence of sea in the making of civilisations on land.
Another brilliant, analytical survey that adds substance and value to the anthology is Shereen Ratnagar's "Approaches to the Study of Ancient Technology". Archaeologists have shown that civilisations are created, among other things, by tool-making and tool-wielding humans. The essay brings out the invention, spread, adoption and adaptation of technologies that helped the humans to deal with various materials and metals and their bearing on transportation and long-distance trade, urbanism, social change and the emergence of the state, without slipping into any deterministic sequence or logic.
Sashi Bhushan Upadhyay has made a historiographic survey of Indian Labour history, identifying the various trends that marked its study in the colonial period, the Marxist-nationalist post-Independence phase, and the shifts in thinking that were seen subsequently that brought into the ambit of study such areas as agrarian labour, un-free labour, informal labour, women labour, emigrant labour and so on.
Kaushik Roy's essay on the "Writings on Indian Military History", a theme not quite fashionable, and even 'politically incorrect', but is both extensive in scope and insightful in intent, bringing together studies that described battles, strategies, technologies of offence and defence, their impact on society, state-building, culture, ecology and so on. Roy's comment that the New Military History approach has demilitarised military history is interesting, though.
John C.B. Webster's essay, "Christian History as Indian Social History" highlights the impact of various assumptions and ideologies from modernisation theories to post-modernism. However, he thinks that a 'conflict model' is a realistic and illuminating approach to study Indian social history.
Entrenched patriarchy
The problem of gender in the writing of south Indian history is competently addressed by Vijaya Ramaswamy. She touches upon entrenched patriarchy in society as well as writings on it, and issues like marriage, notions of chastity, the declining status of temple women to dancing girls, women as property-holders, and their role in economy and politics or in the domain of religion. Sajal Nag's insightful piece on the 'Contradictory Trends in Historical Research in North-East India' shows how the Assamese had moved out of the stage of Buranjis to modern historical awareness and methods, and yet had to accommodate the contradiction of contesting exclusion and resisting inclusion.
J.S. Grewal's essay makes a magisterial survey of Sikh religion, history and literature from the pre-1849 period to the present. Yagati Chinna Rao's essay ably surveys the trends in writing Dalit history in India and rightly raises the vexed question of its apparent neglect.
Approaches to History is a superb anthology, for the choice of the themes as well as for the scholarly ways of addressing the scholarship there. All essays in the book are informative and analytical, none polemical, and some truly brilliant. They show how rich and adventurous Indian historiography has been, and may hopefully nudge the mulish no-changers to see that there is more to history than just drum-and-trumpet. We need more such nudges.

"Authenticity for children and their parents in a perfect setting"
My family and I have had the pleasure of staying at Il Maurilio twice - this summer and 8 years ago - and it is still highly recommendable. And we'll be back. The setting itself is simply great; … More

"A Perfect place for a celebration"
22 friends and relatives from Australia were invited to celebrate a 70th birthday in Italy and La Macina di Bettona was chosen for the venue. It was absolutely perfect. Liz made the initial booking easy by answering questions promptly and expertly. Midst many of her talents she speaks fluent English and Italian. All couples had their own beautiful apartment with ensuite bathroom, lounge and cooking facilities. The whole estate, owned by Roberto and his family is absolutely spectacular and beautifully managed, both inside the apartments and outside in the gorgeous landscaped gardens. Upon our arrival Liz had arranged for us to have dinner in the restaurant which is on the property, and where we all met Roberto and his family. A beautiful family and a wonderful host. Our Italian dinner was superbly prepared and presented by Roberto's family. The grandchildren spent many hours in the sparkling clear swimming pool. There were many highlights on our trip, especially visiting centuries old hill-top towns, Montefalco, Spello, Assisi, Bevagna, Perugia, all of which were close to the property. Roberto taught us to play Bocci which proved to be most enjoyable. A wonderful holiday and a perfect place to relax.

"A beautiful location for a relaxing holiday"
We stayed one week during August and were made to feel extremely welcome by Roberto and Liz. As 2 families with 3 children we had plenty of room in the spacious Il Maurilio apartment ( the large bedroom was still spacious even with the addition of 2 full size single beds). The apartment had everything we required and was beautifully clean with plenty of towels and bedding. The living area was spacious and cool during the day but we spent most time outside, either on the terrace or by the pool. The pool area was beautifully kept with plenty of seating for all the guests. The apartment was close to the pool so it was easy for the children to return there as required. We thoroughly enjoyed the barbeque provided by Roberto, a lovely relaxed evening.
Booking was easy, thanks to Liz, who offered excellent advice on the choice of apartment to best suit our requirements. It was a thoroughly relaxing holiday in a lovely environment.

"Best vacation ever"
We stayed two weeks in this wonderful place during July, and by the end of our stay we had already decided that this would not be our last visit to La Macina di Bettona... As a familiy of 4 (kids aged 3 + 6) we had plenty of room in the spacious Il Maurilio appartment and enjoyed the proximity to the great pool area with the most amazing view towards Assisi. Worth noticing is that the pool is not that suitable for the youngest as it is pretty deep. But the stairs leading down the water makes up for water play for the smallest of kids. You also find a small playground near the pool area. Everything is very clean and nicely kept, and everywhere you have the wonderful smell of lavendar and rosemary. Roberto and Liz are extremely helpful with all sorts of requests and you feel very welcome. Don't miss out on the Wednesday barbeque where you get to sample the best of the local cuisine in a nice and informal manner. The walk up to Bettona is pretty steep and not really recommendable for younger kids so you do need a car to go shopping etc. Plenty of opportunities both in the nearby village of Passagio and larger supermarkets near St Maria degli Angeli. What we found really great about Umbria is that it is not that crowded by tourists so if you are looking for calm beautiful small villages and a small piece of heaven at La Macina you should look no further (if you can only manage to get a booking as this place have many devoted fans that return year after year).

Superb, there are so many words to describe our holiday staying in Maurilio, at La Macina di Betonna, but superb describes it best.
Nestled amongst Olive Groves, below the historic village of Betonna, near enough to get anything, food, bakery, post office, restaurants, yet far enough away you don't feel like you are in the hubub of tourism.
Our apartment Maurilio is large, light, bright, clean and airy and full of all domestic appliances one could need on holiday, plus a brick built Bar-b-Que in the garden.
A warm welcome is always received from Roberto and his family, along with English speaking Lizzie who is very kind and a huge help.
Relaxing by the pool with a drink just taking in the vista is so enjoyable. For the more energetic there are interesting walks in the area, bikes can be hired, there is a Boules Pitch, and Tennis can be played locally. Joining in the local village Festa's can be a great holiday experience as the Italians are so warm and friendly. Children can have endless fun in the pool, and they have a little play park with swings, a slide, table football, and a Wendy House.
We have been returning year after year for the passed 10 years. There is always something new to do, or somewhere different to explore. it is just our 'Little bit of Heaven' and I am sure new guests will feel the same.
Highly recommend renting this apartment, perfect location, and to keep up with the 21st Century, Wifi is available.

"What a fab place!"
This was my first visit to La Macina di Bettona and I loved it! I was staying here as part of a large group. The apartment was well kept and comfortable, it has everything you need. Most nights we would BBQ and eat on the terraces. The surrounding views are beautiful both day and night. Depending on the type of holiday you want you can quite easily stay local, enjoy the pool and jacuzzi or stroll up to the pretty village of Bettona. If you want to head further afield Assisi is a must place to visit. There's also a great ice cream parlour in Torgiano which is worth a trip to. I would recommend this place to anyone. I hope to go back next year!

JEFFERSON CITY — When Elliott Clark's wife broke her ankle, she couldn't work and his paycheck didn't cover the bills.
So he got a payday loan for the house payment, then another to pay the gas bill, and another to keep the lights on. In five years, they paid about $10,000 in interest on about $2,700 in loans.
It's cases like the Clarks that have caused Gov. Jay Nixon to dub the industry a "voracious predator." Nixon is proposing to transform Missouri's payday lending laws from some of the most lax to the most stringent nationally.
But industry lobbyists say no change is needed, and some Republican legislative leaders remain skeptical.
Payday loans give borrowers money in exchange for a check that is cashed on their next payday. Instead of having that check cashed, borrowers can pay the interest and roll the loan over to the next pay period.
Clark said his payday loans ballooned as fees and interest accumulated when he renewed loans repeatedly. He managed to pay off the debt. But this month, he had to take out two more payday loans totaling over $1,000. He hopes to pay that off by Feb. 1.
"You wind up where you've got more bills than money, so you end up going back and getting more," Clark said.
Nixon supported tougher payday loan regulations as attorney general, but those bills repeatedly died in the Missouri Legislature — often not even making it out of a committee. He's hoping to use his greater bully pulpit as governor to advance a bill this year.
But Nixon also has made job creation a priority, something which payday loan officials contend would be hampered by the proposed restrictions on their industry.
Missouri has more than 1,000 licensed payday lenders — about one per every 5,000 Missourians. They employ around 4,000 people and provide a valuable service for people with bad credit who face emergencies and can't turn to banks or relatives, said Dwight McQuade, president of the United Payday Lenders of Missouri.
"The governor said 'we've got to increase jobs,'" McQuade said. "You put the payday lending industry out of business and you've got a lot of people out of work."
Eleven states prohibit payday loans. Of those that allow it, only Wisconsin has no restrictions. Several states have tightened their regulations in recent years.
In 2008, Ohio adopted the nation's lowest interest caps on payday loans, at 28 percent. Arizona's law allowing payday lenders is set to expire in June, after voters last year rejected a renewal of the law.
Despite a national trend toward restricting payday lending, "Missouri has one of the most lax laws," said Jean Ann Fox, financial services director for the Consumer Federation of America.
Missouri limits payday loans to $500 and allows loans to be transferred to the next pay period six times. Lenders can charge fees and interest up to 75 percent of the total loan.
According to the Consumer Federation of America, 21 states prohibit renewing payday loans. Missouri allows the highest number of loan renewals.
Renewing loans is where borrowers get into trouble and payday lenders make their profit, said Rep. Mary Still, D-Columbia.
"Missouri is the cash cow of the payday industry," said Still, who is sponsoring a bill tightening industry regulations. "Why bother going to other states when you can come here and make a lot of money?"
According to a January 2009 Missouri Division of Finance study, the average payday loan was for $290 and the average annual interest rate was 431 percent. That would result in $48 in fees and interest for a 14-day loan.
More than 2.8 million loans, including renewed loans, were made between Oct. 1, 2007 and Sept. 30, 2008, according to the study. But the average number of loan renewals dropped from 2.2 in 2003 to 1.7 in 2009, the study found.
Nixon spokesman Scott Holste said the governor wants to reduce how much interest payday loan companies can charge, but he has not endorsed any specific legislation.
Several Democratic lawmakers have filed bills that would prohibit renewing loans, give the attorney general more power to prosecute payday lenders and give borrowers more time — perhaps up to 90 days — to repay their loan.
But House Financial Institutions Committee chairman Rep. Mike Cunningham said some of those proposals go too far. Reducing interest rate caps from their current 75 percent to 36 percent, as proposed in one bill, would force businesses to close, he said.
Payday loan industry lobbyist Randy Scherr said the industry could support lowering the number of loan renewals and could support lowering the interest cap to 60 percent, but he said a more drastic drop would kill the industry.
"That percentage rate doesn't even pay the rent, much less the employees and the bills," Scherr said. "In the states where they've put on the 36 percent, the industry is basically gone."

MOMIX to perform at Wortham Theatre
Published: Sunday, January 26, 2003 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 26, 2003 at 12:00 a.m.
ASHEVILLE -- The Diana Wortham Theatre at Pack Place kicks off its Mainstage Dance Series with the internationally acclaimed company MOMIX performing their original work In Orbit at 2 and 8 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 16.
Known internationally, MOMIX is a company of dancer-illusionsists under the direction of Moses Pendleton, co-founder of Pilobolus Dance.
Since 1984, MOMIX has been reshaping ideas about dance and movement theater around the world. About the company's performance of In Orbit, the Hartford Courant reported, "A fusion of movement, music and magic, MOMIX defies the standard descriptions and expectations of a contemporary dance company . . .MOMIX uses the human form to invent seemingly supernatural stage images that provoke the imagination and stir the senses."
In Orbit is an evening of visual short pieces, special lights, scrims, giant puppets, trapezes, beds and towering shadows, set to a diverse selection of music ranging from Vivaldi to Dead Can Dance. Among the pieces: Orbit is a fantastical solo in which the dancer performs full out while keeping a hula hoop in uninterrupted motion; The Wind Up is a whirling dervish dance whose dancer manipulates an enormous silver ball; Sputnik is a surreal piece that suggests ancient ritual with its goddess in a brass bowl; and E.C. uses a scrim and dancers' bodies to cast giant shadows in a funny narration of an extraterrestial visit.
Pendleton, who founded the company and is its chief choreographer, uses bodies to sculpt dance works that delight in proving that the physically impossible is achievable.
The Mainstage Dance Series is sponsored by the Barrie Family Charitable Trust and Tina and John McGuire with additional suport from media sponsor WCQS.
Tickets are $25 for adults, $23 for seniors and students and $10 for children 12 and under. Diana Wortham Theatre is in Pack Place on Pack Square in downtown Asheville.
For more information or to make reservations, call 257-4530.

Gosh, there are few things better than the face belonging to Vanessa Hudgens. Perhaps her body is one of those few things better or maybe her thin, curved lips are my favorite thing about her. I believe it was Shakespeare who wrote "Let Me Count the Ways of Thy Hotness." I could count pretty darn high with this one.�
Anyway, here's Vanessa looking super-duper fantastically�hot. The best thing about all these pics is that her eyes are hiding behind a plain, black hat. Her getup isn't very extravagant, but it makes her look kind of�mysterious and secretive, even though she probably just left a personal trainer's to get all fit and what not. What do you think is going on behind the peak of her hat?�

While today's Supreme Court decision in Young v. UPS is indeed a victory for pregnant workers, and Physicians celebrates the outcome, we also call for further action by Congress to ensure all workers are protected. Our board chair Dr. Nancy Stanwood said:
"It is time for Congress to pass the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act, so no woman has to choose between her job and a healthy pregnancy. As doctors, we give our patients the information they need to stay healthy and we count on employers to act as partners in helping their employees follow our medical advice."
